Technical Data
Assembly
Battery Charging
Use only the battery chargers listed on the accessories
page. Only these battery chargers are matched to the lith-
ium-ion battery pack used in your vacuum cleaner.
Note:The battery supplied is partially charged.To ensure full
capacity of the battery, completely charge the battery in the
batterychargerbeforeusing yourpowertoolforthe firsttime.
The battery must be removed from the vacuum cleaner to
charge it.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without re-
ducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure
does not damage the battery.
The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharging
by the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is
empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective
circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.
Following the automatic shut-off of the vacuum clean-
er, do not continue to press the On/Off button. The bat-
tery can be damaged.
The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature control
which allows charging only within a temperature range of be-
tween 0 °C and 45 °C. A long battery service life is achieved
in this manner.
A significantly reduced working period after charging indi-
cates that the battery is used and must be replaced.
Observe the notes for disposal.
Battery Insertion/Removal (see figures A1 – A2)
Do not use force to insert the battery. The battery is de-
signed in such a way that it can only be inserted into the
vacuum cleaner when it is in the right position.
– Slide the battery pack 5all the way into the battery port
12.
– To remove the battery 5, press the unlocking button 13 on
the battery and pull it out of the battery bay 12.
